✨ Technical Specifications
The legendary Rémy Martin Louis XIII 'Very Old' Age Unknown is a monumental piece of spirits history. This rare bottling traces its lineage back to the historic royal banquet at the Château de Versailles in 1938, where it was served to King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. Crafted exclusively from the prestigious Grande Champagne cru—the premier cru of Cognac famed for its chalky soils—this masterpiece is a blend of hundreds of extremely old eaux-de-vie, some aged for over a century in ancient oak tierçons. The 'Age Unknown' designation on these mid-20th-century decanters reflects the timeless, unquantifiable nature of these historic reserves, presented in the iconic crystal decanter inspired by a 16th-century metal flask recovered from the Battle of Jarnac.
